SOUTH JORDAN, UT, USA: Dr. Dan Fischer, president and CEO of Ultradent Products, recently accepted a Steuben Glass sculpture as a thank you for Ultradent’s support of The Health Ministry of the Southern Tier. The honor followed Fischer’s lecture at the 52nd anniversary of the Joseph Ferraioli Memorial event at the Corning, headquarters.

The event was sponsored by the Sixth District Dental Society, and the award was presented by the Bi-County Dental Society of Chemung and Steuben Counties.

  “We were grateful to have Dr. Fischer as our speaker for the 52nd Annual Joseph Ferraioli Memorial Lecture,” said Dr. Ron Bellohusen, the head of the Bi-County committee. “His presentation was both informative and inspirational. I believe Dr. Ferraioli would have enthusiastically approved. We thank you [Ultradent] for your support of our local dental health ministry through your donation of products.”

  The annual meeting is dedicated to Dr. Joseph Ferraioli as a tribute to his years of community service and dedication to academic excellence in the profession of dentistry. Ferraioli, a graduate of the University of Buffalo Dental School, made a major contribution in service to the community of dentists in Steuben and Chemung Counties by acting as a public relations liaison for Corning Glass works for 22 years. He was the main organizer for the Tri-County Dental meeting.

In his honor, Dr. Fischer presented on the topic of “Minimally Invasive Dentistry: Back to Basics.”
